OSWEGO, NY (May 8, 2017) – Oswego Speedway will open for its 67th consecutive season of racing action this Saturday, May 13 with a triple header presented by Mitchell’s Speedway Press of Oswego featuring kick-off events for the Novelis Supermodifieds and Pathfinder Bank SBS as well as the Richie Evans Memorial 61 for the Ferris Mowers Race of Champions Asphalt Modifieds.
Nearly 75 racecars are expected for the speedway’s opening night, which will open the point championships for the Novelis Supermodifieds and Pathfinder Bank Small Block Supers as part of a 12 race Road to the Championship which includes twin events for both divisions.

This Saturday’s RoC Modified Richie Evans Memorial will be the second event on the RoC schedule with the ground pounders already having competed in one show this season with Andy Jankowiak scoring a victory at Lancaster National Speedway back on April 29.

A total of 18 RoC Modifieds were on hand for the RoC opener just a couple of weeks ago, with many more expected at ‘The Steel Palace’ this weekend.

Last year, Patrick Emerling started his 2016 campaign strong at Oswego, holding off Matt Hirschman, Austin Kochenash, Bryan Sherwood and Jimmy Zacharias for the big win. Visit RocModifiedSeries.com for more info.

In the Pathfinder Bank SBS division last season, Mike Bond held off teammate Matt Magner, 2012 SBS Champion Kreig Heroth, multi-time feature winner Anthony Losurdo and eventual track champion Dave Cliff for the opening night checkers.

2016 track champion Michael Barnes graced Novelis Supermodified victory lane on Opening Night for the first time of his career one year ago, winning an exciting main event over 5-time Opening Night winner Otto Sitterly, Tim Devendorf, Aric Iosue, and Pat Lavery.
